No, waste of money it will become useless rapidly. Invest in things like drones/technology and personnel that will be usefull for border security atleast.

History repeatedly shows that when countries build walls the "invaders" just go around one good example is the Mongols and the Great Wall of china

What happens when you build a wall?? They go around it. Republicans complain that the president keeps putting us in more debt but seriously you wanna talk debt? Who the heck is supposed to pay for a 2,000 mile long wall

Will this wall be dug deep so that they can keep them from tunneling under it? When will our border with Canada be sealed too , are those illegals better than those from Mexico? If the wall is ever built I bet illegals will be hired to build it!

Secure? Yes!! But make it clear in the contractors' contracts they'll have to pay back all fees earned if we can prove the wall wasn't secure. If we show we mean business maybe the contractors will do the work we're paying them to do.

Yes it's time we stop the illegals from coming over and breaking our laws and stealing all our resources and entitlements that we pay for as a taxpayer

If there going to come they need to come legally. Secondly we need a wall along the border and it needs to be stone so people can't get over.

Why not just put a dome over the U.S., that sounds like an even better way to protect us from the evil aliens!

Yes! We must stop illegal immigrants coming here and stealing jobs that our future generations could have! When Israel built the wall on their border terrorist attacked reduced by over 50%

What a waste of money... Next we are going to build one to the north... People, common sense please. This isn't the Great Wall of China, modern technology dictates that this is a waste of time and money...

Just saying there is an ocean as another means of transportation, also who will pay for this border? We will. Hey i'm all for it if it will fix the problem but I would like to hear other options as well.

YES! Look at what other countries do to protect their borders! They build walls. Why? BECAUSE IT KEEPS THOSE WHO WISH TO DO HARM OUT. Trump has a $100MILLION bounty on his head. Who will try for the money? ILLEGAL MEXICANS WITHOUT LEGAL TIES.

I think we should build jointly owned factories along the border where Latinos and Americans can both find jobs.

If an illegal alien is caught smuggling people or illegal substances (guns, drugs, etc.) the punishment should be death. If an illegal who is deported once is found in the United States again, they should serve a minimum of two months in solitary.-

Keeping our nation secure is not "a waste of taxpayer money". In fact, it's one of the very few legitimate functions of our federal government. Our border security is a massive weakness when it comes to national defense.

I think we could start by deporting the illegal ones now. Then, stop giving them free healthcare for illegally coming here. Then stop giving them work permits and drivers Licenses. We don't need a wall. We just need to stop making it attractive

Absolutely. Build it and man it. Won't stop all the illegal aliens, but it'll make a positive difference.
Follow than up with stiff penalties for employing illegal aliens and the demand will quickly subside.

I don't see a reason to spend billions of tax payer dollars to build a giant wall. What happened when the Berlin Wall was built will probably happen here, people will try all means necessary to get to the U.S., and many could die while doing so.

A short fence, about 6 feet tall, 50 feet, then another stronger higher wall. Oh yeah and in between an active minefield. Make sure the short wall has the warning in every language. And if they blow themselves up tough shit.

How about we just stop all the govt handouts to the illegals. Many come over for the free medical care, education, etc. I was down on my luck for a brief period and couldn't get zip. I was actually told that I'd have better luck if I wa illegal.
